Tara Collins-Bullock, headteacher of the school, said: “I would like to say a very big thank you to everybody involved at the Baptist Church for their hard work and commitment in raising such an amazing amount.

“I’d also like to thank the local community for their support.”

A cheque for £762.52 was presented to Mrs Collins-Bullock from Ruth Bird, Baptist Church member, at a school assembly on June 18.
